Double Clutchin’-The Ugly From The Brickyard
Sorry that this article was late. I blew two tires out while trying to get to a computer.
I’ll be at the Comedy Barn all week. This race gave me a million jokes, every one of them as bad as that one, and none of which are as bad as the Brickyard 400 turned out to be on Sunday. Good God, that was an abomination of a race yesterday. Probably the best quote that I’ve heard about the race was from Dr. Jerry Punch. Dr. Punch is on 990 am in Knoxville every week and he is always a good guest on the John and Jimmy show, and today he shared a couple of thoughts about how hard it was to do commentary for that race, and just how terrible the race was to watch. I had to laugh with this quote:
“If Bill France, Sr. were still alive he would have marched into a meeting today and told everyone involved that the best thing to do with the COT is take it out in the yard and let flowers grow in it, while these boys build them some racing cars, and while you’re at it get Goodyear on the phone and tell them if they can’t get us a tire that will work to get on the horn to Firestone and they will”.
Good stuff, there.
Let me go ahead and say that I don’t want to come off as a know-it-all, even though I am one. I don’t know…
